Agnes B. Vintage Gray Iconic Snap Cardigan sz 2

Origins of the Agnes B. snap cardigan from Agnes B: “Years ago, I designed a cardigan for myself. I wanted a cardigan with a lot of snaps, to look just like a Renaissance garment, a children’s garment for grown-ups, or the other way around." Jean-Baptiste Mondino, Steven Silverstein, Jeanloup Sieff, Dominique Issermann, William Klein, Sophie Calle, Steve Hiett and Gilles Bensimon are some of the 64 photographers who participated in the Snap Cardigan exhibition at the Galerie du Jour in 1986. These photographs were put on display again ten years later, in 1996, at the Centre Pompidou. “Recognition” according to Elle magazine, for the garment which became a museum piece.
